Generato dall'IAThe Supreme Court of Finland allowed the employee's claim for interest on unpaid wages in the employer's bankruptcy proceedings. The employee argued that interest should be paid as a priority claim, while the administrator contested this based on the general order of bankruptcy payments. The court ruled that under the relevant sections of the Bankruptcy Act, interest on wage claims retains its priority status and must be paid before unsecured creditors.
